Promise lyrics

[Verse 1]
You said that you'll be there when I get home
You'll do the laundry, cook the meal for all
But I smell neither garlic, nor the cotton when I'm here
All I hear is silence that you left when you disappeared

[Pre-Chorus]
Why didn't you say that you wouldn't stay with me
Forever like then, on the day you first met me?
I don't even care why you had to leave, baby

[Chorus]
You tear me apart, look how selfish you are
Left me behind when I gave you my life
Where are you now? How am I supposed to tell them how?
And you promised that you wouldn't leave before me
Tell me why you couldn't keep your promise

[Verse 2]
I know that you can't hear me like before
But there are things I think you need to know
The things that you would know, if you'd just wait a little more
But you don't like to wait, and now they think that it's their fault

[Pre-Chorus]
Why didn't you say that you wouldn't stay with me
Forever like then, on the day you first met me?
I don't even care why you had to leave, baby
[Chorus]
You tear me apart, look how selfish you are
Left me behind when I gave you my life
Where are you now? How am I supposed to tell them how?
And you promised that you wouldn't leave before me
Tell me why you couldn't keep your promise

[Outro]
(Promise you gave me)
(Promise, not leave me)
(Promise you gave me)
(Promise, not leave me)
